Alstott a question mark

Jon Gruden says fullback Mike Alstott is a little sore and it appears the Bucs aren't counting on him for Friday night's preseason opener.

Gruden didn't indicate the Alstott had a partricular injury, but suggested it was just fatigue. We'll likely know more tomorrow when the Bucs have their final walkthrough before Friday's home game against New England.
